DISCUSSION Surveying, documenting, and maintaining records for properties eligible for listing on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties is a requirement of the City's Certified Local Government (CLG) Agreement with the California State Office of Historic Preservation. A Survey Methodology was agreed upon by the Historic Resources Commission that requires the City be divided into quadrants, and all properties would be surveyed for architectural and cultural merit within each quadrant. The survey process would be continuous in an effort to have each neighborhood survey no more than five years old. This continual updating is important in terms of the City's CLG status and the overall integrity of the historic preservation program. The City received three responses to the Request for Proposal for historic consulting services: Sapphos Environmental, Inc., CRM Tech, and Galvin Preservation Associates, Inc. After a thorough review, staff has identified Sapphos Environmental, Incorporated as the firm best able to comprehensively research and document properties within the City limits that are not currently designated on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties (grading summary attached as Exhibit 1) . Sapphos Environmental, Inc. has an excellent understanding of the survey process. Additionally, Leslie Heumann will be one of the assigned Sapphos team members, and she has a strong familiarity with the city and the requirements of Chapter 30 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code. 258-1 Contract Award for Historic Consulting Services March 20, 2006 Page 2 The total contract amount would be for an amount not to exceed $71,000. which includes a contingency amount of $6,100.
